Kentucky Legislature to Consider Series of Anti-Abortion Bills

The Kentucky Legislature will consider a host of anti-abortion bills in the 1998 legislative session. The new Senate leader, Larry Saunders (D-Louisville), said recently that while he does not expect bills which restrict access to abortions all together to pass, he does expect two anti-abortion bills to pass. One would mandate a 24 hour waiting period for women and another deals with increased regulations of abortion clinics.
